Proper use of http://api.twitter.com/1/users/lookup.format with oAuth lib

[EastSideDev]

I am using Abraham Williams' oAuth library. It's been working fine,
but I seem to have hit a snag on getting users profiles using
http://api.twitter.com/1/users/lookup.format.

Typically, I would do:

$oAuthConnection = new TwitterOAuth($keys['key'], $keys['secret'],
$keys['token'], $keys['TokenSecret']);

and then (for example), if I want to get my rate limit, I would do:

$content = $oAuthConnection->get('account/rate_limit_status');

or any number of other operations, but if I try to do:

$content = $oAuthConnection->get('users/lookup', array('user_id ' =>
$users_ids, 'include_entities' => 1));

Where $users_ids is a comma separated list (no more than 100), I am
getting nothing. Any ideas?

What is the response you are getting from Twitter?

PS: I am actually testing to see if the string is numerical (user_id),
or text (screen_name), and then calling using one of the following
methods:

$content = $oAuthConnection->get('users/lookup', array('user_id ' =>

$users_ids, 'include_entities' => 1)); OR

$content = $oAuthConnection->get('users/lookup', array('screen_name'

=> $users_ids, 'include_entities' => 1));

Where $users_ids is a comma separated string containing up to 100
twitter IDs/screen_names

That means that Twitter could not find any of the users you are looking up. Verify that you are requesting real users.

mea culpa

I had a space before the hyphen following screen_name.

$content = $this->oAuthConnection->get('users/lookup',

array('screen_name ' => $users_ids, 'include_entities' => 1));

Removing the space fixes the problem.
